Hi..

Just registed up.. As i just bought my r33 94 Model skyline off my uncle..

I was looking into getting some mods for it but nothing to extreme.. as i have to drive it most days and im only a 3rd year apprentise..

Its has a hks Mushroom filter, Exaust System, And a Dual stage boost switch.. running like 7low 8 high.. its fairly stock.

Was thinking along the lines of maybe a front mount and a new computer.. but nothing to pricey Any Suggestions??

Im sure some of the site sponsers could help you out on a good price for a fmic kit.. Or you could go the cheap way n check ebay for a chinese copy lol.

FMIC kits can start anywhere from 300 dollars all the way up to about 2,000 Depending on brand n style.

With your 2stage boost controller.. id probably bump the "high" up to about 10psi. Has the car got a boost gauge? I wouldve thought that having the aftermarket exhaust (is it 3"?) wouldve bumped the boost up by itself anyways.

How much money did u want 2 spend? U could grab a piggy back computer for cheap.. or look at going a complete aftermarket computer. But for the mods u said u were having or going 2 do, i hardly see it worthwhile. Maybe stick with a SAFC2 as toffy said.

Sorry is the SAFC2 a whole new comp or a piggy back type or...?(Sorry New To This)

I want a good fmic not to expensive.. Im sure its a right through exaust if its 2.5 or 3 not to sure..

Would u suggest these mods or somthing else..

I had it dynoed and it only has a poor 148kw atw.. Would these types of mods add another 50kw if not how much.. (roughly)

Im looking at spending 2-3k are these mods installed possible with this price tag?

Thanks for all your help.!

with 2-3K to spend i would go a Greddy/Trust front mount intercooler....they go for around the $800-1K mark.....then prob a Greddy Emanage Piggy back ECU.....and run at about 10 psi this should see you push past the 200rwkw mark....

My mate has a series 2 R33 and all he has is a Hybrid fmic and running at about 9psi with a well tuned factory ECU....and he is at the 198 rwkw mark...he did have it dynoed on 12 psi and was making around 220 mark.....so its not hard to get some decent power out of these motors for cheap....

if i were you i would also look at getting a Z32 air flow meter...they go for around $400-500 mark and they are a whole lot better/easy to tune......and does give you some power

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
